AnglePose: robust, precise capacitive touch tracking via 3d orientation estimation
We present a finger-tracking system for touch-based interaction which can track 3D finger angle in addition to position, using low-resolution conventional capacitive sensors, th...

Hybrid in-database inference for declarative information extraction
In the database community, work on information extraction (IE) has centered on two themes: how to effectively manage IE tasks, and how to manage the uncertainties that arise in th...

A Stochastic Approach to Measuring the Robustness of Resource Allocations in Distributed Systems
Often, parallel and distributed computing systems must operate in an environment replete with uncertainty. Determining a resource allocation that accounts for this uncertainty in ...

Probabilistic Ontology Trees for Belief Tracking in Dialog Systems
We introduce a novel approach for robust belief tracking of user intention within a spoken dialog system. The space of user intentions is modeled by a probabilistic extension of t...

Learning stick-figure models using nonparametric Bayesian priors over trees
We present a fully probabilistic stick-figure model that uses a nonparametric Bayesian distribution over trees for its structure prior. Sticks are represented by nodes in a tree i...
